Geographies of Modernism (Hardcover)

One of the most innovative tendencies in contemporary literary and cultural studies is the investigation of space and geography, a trend which is proving particularly important for modernist studies. This volume explores the interface between modernism and geography in a range of writers, texts and artists across the twentieth century.
Cross-disciplinary essays test and extend a variety of methodological approaches and reveal the reach of this topic into every corner of modernist scholarship. From Imagist poetry and the orient to teashops and modernism in London, or from mapping and belonging in James Joyce or Joseph Conrad to the space of new media artists, this remarkable volume offers fresh, invigorating research that ranges across the field of modernism, but also serves to signal the many exciting new directions that future studies may take.
With ground-breaking essays from an international team of highly-regarded scholars, "Geographies of Modernism" is an important step forward in literary and cultural studies.
